Hi,

573927426_10235031234694442_6223731131875829216_n.jpg

Found this picture this morning on a Facebbok post I commented but can't find back.
It seems to be Austrian 8cm trench mortar projectiles. There was a picture of the projectile on the right in the original post but I didn't save it.

Can someone shed some light on those and maybe give reference documentation ?

Cheers,

S.
 
-Ammunition for the ,,mitl. Granatwerfer,, (k.u.k). + ammunition for the ,,kl.Granatwerfer (k.u.k).
-this is another type of ammunition besides high-caliber mines.
The illustrations are from two regulations connected together.I think I saw them in the appendix to these regulations.
The ammunition on the right has a dirty label in this picture that shows the diameter of the body, in the original it is the caliber and length ...

Hello,
used with modified longer barrel in Mittlere Grantat Werfer

shells are semi finished or rejected as artillery shells.
